Taylor Home Cooking Show

A couple of weeks ago we got our hands on some UTAH TOMATOES. We were planning and looking forward to bottling some stewed
tomatoes. As I cleared the decks and laid everything out to begin I couldn't resist taking a picture because it was so colorful and picture
perfect!

Ross became interested and so he learned to sterilize, blanch, skin and chop. The house smelled absolutely delicious.
Halfway done! Some are bottled .....one pan is 1 hour into the stewing process and the other pan is just beginning. This took us almost an entire Saturday. (We did get some yardwork done thanks to some spanish-speaking friends)
This picture was dad's idea. He really enjoys just opening a jar for lunch. It is full of veggies. Tomatoes, celery, onion, summer squash, zuchini and bell pepper. YUM! Shout out to Aunt Melba for the recipe. (I added a couple of secret spices of my own too!)
One of the most rewarding things to do is put the jars on the storage shelves. So Pretty!
